Amitabh Bachchan shuts down troll with classy response after being asked to 'sleep early if he doesn't want to die soon'
Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan is known not just for his iconic performances but also for his witty and dignified presence on social media. Late on Monday night, as he interacted with fans on X (formerly Twitter), one user tried to troll him with a remark about his bedtime. But Big B shut down the comment with a calm and classy response.

Taking to X in the early hours of Monday, Amitabh wrote, "T 5405 - Gadgets break .. Longevity lasts!!! (sic)." Shortly after he posted the tweet, a user tried to take a dig at the actor with a sarcastic remark, but Amitabh was quick to respond, clearly not in the mood for trolling.
The user commented, "Samay se so jaaya karo, varna lambi umar bhi nahi tikegi" (Try to sleep on time, otherwise even a long life won't last). In response, Amitabh replied with grace and wit: "Mere maran ki baat karne ke liye dhanyawad; Ishwar ki kripa" (Thank you for talking about my death; God bless you!).
Earlier in May, Amitabh opened up about the criticism he often receives. In a blog post, he wrote, "And they tell me to change my signature .. to not put dots in it .. to not put curved lines .. to wear this, to wear that .. to not visit here or there .. to not talk here, to not talk there .. when you talk they say why do you talk .. when you do not talk they say why you do not talk."
Big B was last seen in Vettaiyan, alongside superstar Rajinikanth. The film marked their reunion on screen after 33 years, although it didn't quite live up to audience expectations. He will next be seen in the sequel to Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD. Amitabh played the role of Ashwatthama in the first instalment—a performance that garnered widespread acclaim. The sequel is expected to go on floors in December this year.

'Jaya and I decided...': Amitabh Bachchan reveals he will give his property worth Rs 3160 crore to...
The Bachchan family is one of the biggest Bollywood households, consisting of some iconic actors including Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan. Amitabh and Jaya have ruled the cinema for ages. In 1973, the couple got married and were blessed with two kids — Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Nanda Bachchan. While Abhishek followed in his father's footsteps to become an actor, Shweta is an Indian columnist and author. Amitabh Bachchan is one of the wealthiest actors in the industry, with an impressive net worth of around Rs 1600 crore. With such wealth, the question that often arises is: who will inherit Big B and Jaya Bachchan's properties? Recently, an old video of Amitabh Bachchan has gone viral where he revealed how he wishes to divide his properties after his death. In a 2011 interview with Rediff, Amitabh Bachchan said, 'I would not differentiate between Abhishek and Shweta. When I die, whatever little I have will be equally divided between my daughter and my son — there is no differentiation. Jaya and I decided on that a long time back. Everybody says that the girl is paraya dhan, she goes to her husband's house, but in my eyes, she is our daughter; she has the same rights Abhishek has.' In 2007, Abhishek Bachchan tied the knot with Aishwarya Rai, and the couple was blessed with a daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan. On the other hand, Shweta married Nikhil Nanda, the son of Raj Kapoor's daughter Ritu Nanda and Rajan Nanda. The couple has two children — a son, Agastya Nanda, and a daughter, Navya Naveli. Coming to Abhishek Bachchan's work front, the actor will be seen in King alongside Shah Rukh Khan. More details about the film are awaited.
